Naming SmartClone volumes
Because you may create dozens or even hundreds of SmartClone volumes, you need to plan the
naming convention for them. For information about the default naming conventions built into the
LeftHand OS software, see “Setting naming conventions” (page 18).
When you create a SmartClone volume, you can designate the base name for the volume. This
base name is then used with numbers appended, incrementing to the total number of SmartClone
volumes you create. For example, Figure 76 (page 187) shows a SmartClone volume with the base
name of “C#” and 10 clones. (The number in parentheses indicates how many snapshots are
under that volume.)
Figure 76 Example of using a base name with 10 SmartClone volumes
After you designate a base name for the SmartClone volumes while you are creating them, you
can then edit individual names of SmartClone volumes in the table list, before you finish creating
them.
NOTE: Rename the SmartClone volume at the bottom of the list. Then the numbering sequence
is not disrupted.
